We don't get rain here. We get snow- and I'm very scared of driving with my parents in the snow. Yesterday it started snowing, and by the next hour we had about half a foot of it. Now we have about 8 or 9 inches. It's also incredibly icy. Not fun!

I took this picture about 5 minutes for you :) Sorry about the terrible quality- it's taller than it looks.

When the conditions are bad,i am the one that ends up driving.I learned how to drive so long ago i can't remember NOT driving.I also drive to all the places we do business, different places every day so i will drive until i am ordered to stop! (yes it has happened)

Scared is not the word I would use. I have driven hours in pouring rain because I had to be somewhere and it was horrible. I was exhausted and tense. Still better than when I had to drive in the sleet or snow. Oh, yeah, and one time in a hurricane!

I was driving home from work. I had been pooh-pooing the storm all that evening. Then, on the way home, I went around a curve & there was a tree across the street. I turned around and just barely got away before another came down behind me. I drove way out of my way after that to stay on a freeway to avoid more of that. Then just after I finally got home there was a big bang like a transformer blowing up and off went the power. I was lucky & got elec back in 2 days. For some of my friends, it was 10 days. We had 10 inches of rain in about 8 hrs.

The first time my parents let me drive long distance (50 miles) it ended up raining really hard. Couldn't even see 10 feet in front of the vehicle. My dad refused to let me pull over and swap (he didn't want to get out in the rain). It was nothing, just drive smart and be aware of what Can happen and what IS happening, and you will be fine. Of course when it comes to other drivers, you can never tell. But I don't worry to much about them, that would be like being scared to go outside because a piano might fall on your head. It might happen, but why restrict your life around what is out of your control?
